Test Yourself (2 Corinthians 13:1-6)
Bob Schultz, March 26, 2023Part of the II Corinthians series, preached at a Sunday Morning service
Today we begin to develop the great theme of self-examination as Paul applies this to context of II Corinthians and each of our lives as well.
2 Corinthians 13:1–6 (Listen)
13:1 This is the third time I am coming to you. Every charge must be established by the evidence of two or three witnesses. 2 I warned those who sinned before and all the others, and I warn them now while absent, as I did when present on my second visit, that if I come again I will not spare them—3 since you seek proof that Christ is speaking in me. He is not weak in dealing with you, but is powerful among you. 4 For he was crucified in weakness, but lives by the power of God. For we also are weak in him, but in dealing with you we will live with him by the power of God.
5 Examine yourselves, to see whether you are in the faith. Test yourselves. Or do you not realize this about yourselves, that Jesus Christ is in you?—unless indeed you fail to meet the test! 6 I hope you will find out that we have not failed the test.
